DataStreams: | nsaskyrad60sC1.a1, nsaskyrad60sC1.b1 |
Description: | Unreasonable data from 3/15 23:45 until 3/16 0:45 due to exchange of PIR instrument to the PIR spare (32054F3). This was done so the PIR could go to NOAA/CMDL in Boulder for calibration as part of the IPARSC II IOP and be included in this work. |

Description: | Calibration coefficient for PIR spare (32054F3) was updated on 3/25 2:35 GMT. The old PIR cal coefficient was used during this period. The PIR spare (32054F3) was calibrated by NOAA/CMDL in Boulder prior to the IOP and replacement on 3/16 when the original station PIR was shipped to Boulder for a post IOP calibration. |

Subject: | NSA/GNDRAD/C1 - Noisy PIR Data |
DataStreams: | nsagndrad60sC1.a1, nsagndrad60sC1.b1 |
Description: | During the period referenced, the ground PIR was noisy in comparison to the the sky PIR data. (Note U021211.1 documents same problem for 9/1/98-2/28/99) The noise problem continued after the GNDRAD data logger was replaced in late September. Particularly strong examples of the noise can be seen in data from 11/10 - 11/19/99. The peak to peak noise reaches 12 W/m2. |

DataStreams: | nsagndrad60sC1.a1, nsagndrad60sC1.b1 |
Description: | After re-installation of the IRT on 12/10/99, the data are noisy. Source of the noise is believed to be the heater connected directly to the IRT. Instrument was taken offline on 12/30/1999 and shipped back to PNNL for repair/testing. |

Description: | The PSP was erroneously replaced with a B&W on 6/13 and then changed back to the PSP on 6/21. Data should still be good since appropriate calibration factors were applied. |

Subject: | NSA/SKYRAD/C1 - NIP shaded by skyrad stand around local midnight |
DataStreams: | nsaskyrad60sC1.a1, nsaskyrad60sC1.b1 |
Description: | Around local midnight 9:30-10:30 GMT during summer clear sky the normal incidence pyranometer is shaded by the instrument stand.This causes the reading to be 0 W/m2. If cosine correction is applied for irradiance calulations this effect is negligible due to the low solar angle. |

Subject: | NSA/SKYRAD/C1 - PSP shaded by MFRSR after local midnight |
DataStreams: | nsaskyrad60sC1.a1, nsaskyrad60sC1.b1 |
Description: | Just past local midnight (11:00-11:40 GMT during summer clear sky) the global hemispherical pyranometer is shaded by the MFRSR instrument for about 40 minutes. This causes the reading to be 0 W/m2. This effect would be negligible in a daily average due to the low solar angle. |

Subject: | NSA/SKYRAD/C1 - IRT measurements during precipitation events |
DataStreams: | nsaskyrad60sC1.b1 |
Description: | The IRT measurement of sky/cloud temperature was in question during precipitation events because rain or snow could accumulate in the upward-pointed lens barrel. This was corrected by reorienting the IRT to measure the sky temperature as reflected by a gold mirror. |

Description: | On and around the summer solstice, the NIP (Direct Normal shortwave measurement) and PSP (global hemispheic shortwave measurement) radiometers are shaded by other instruments or support structures. Shading azimuths have been determined for this site.
